The leaves turning, the first hint of crisp cool air and the pumpkin patches are all exciting parts of a change of season. It is not something I grew up with in Florida. Fall was when the rainy season stopped and the dry season began. Fall is now one of my favorite times of year. I have experience a few nice falls and hope to add many more. One of the things about season change is people have always celebrated it in some way. Ancient rituals become new holidays. Seasons changes are a visual cornucopia of images and awakening of the senses. It may be some ancestral tribal wakening in our souls that we experience these events, but for an artist it offers a new array of sights, colors, images, sounds, smells and more. And with that comes creativity. Here are a few images of fall from my trip to the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina.
